	Carnivac, with Snarler staring him down, hesitantly refuses to come help. Snarler is satisfied—leaving the enemy to die is enough. But Carnivac can't suppress his warrior's honor, and changes his mind. Catilla's happy to join as well. As they head off, Snarler vows that he'll be the first to sign up for the execution squad.

	The two Decepticons make a dramatic entrance into the battle, and quickly turn the tables against the monsters. One of the creatures confesses to Skids before trying to bump him off—they can survive without him, and vice versa. Angry at being played for a fool, Skids joins the others in a short, swift fight to destroy the creatures.

	Afterwards, Carnivac is ready to head out, as the Decepticons will surely be coming after them. But Springer says they're all in it together, and offers them a place on the team. Catilla accepts the offer to become an [[Honorary Autobot]]; Carnivac also joins, but on his own terms, as a Decepticon. The Wreckers, Skids, and former [[Mayhem Attack Squad\|Mayhems]] are now... the [[Survivors]]!		Afterwards, Carnivac is ready to head out, as the Decepticons will surely be coming after them.

In a nice little detail, Springer is suspicious what sort of job Carnivac was doing and the Decepticon, rather than tell him it was a failed assassination, gives him a half-truth by saying "no-one got hurt"!		*Carnivac, Snarler and Catilla were granted their shells by [[Scorponok (G1)\|Scorponok]] in exchange for running a mission for him—namely, to kill [[Fortress Maximus (G1)\|Fortress Maximus]]'s human partner, [[Spike Witwicky (G1)\|Spike Witwicky]], in "[[The Man in the Machine!]]" As Catilla didn't appear in that US story, it's explained here that he "just monitored", with no further elaboration.
